The newspaper ad's look lifelike for some reason. For a second I thought you were offering him a choice of rat or chicken cutlets, or maybe a multi course meal.

Congratulations! Next time I'd try to get one smaller than that one. Looks like that one was a little too big, judging by the lump that it left.

Yup, after watching the video - that rat was way too big for your guy! I would go down to a rat pup next time.

yeah the rat was a tad to big, i think illl go back to large mice for now. i have been thinking about doing f/t when it comes to rats. i dont want them to hurt my kid
